Lessons+Learned

I learned a lot from this course! Initially, I was nervous about the tools we were learning because I was not sure if I could access Wiki from my school district. I've taken a web site class before and I was not successful. I have had some experiences with Wiki from other classes in my masters classes. I didn't realize I could make my own Wiki. Overall, I am a little overwhelmed because there is still so much to do and change.

The toolbox assignment helped because you gave us a chance to explore and see what tools were useful or not. Because I teach kindergarten, I knew that my learning space was going to focus on parents not my students. Lindsay and I met during our week to further explore and use some of the tools for our learning spaces. I liked using YouTube, Zoho writer, Glypho, and photo story. I loved when you shared with us the Audacity. I would use this for building fluency with my students. It was easy to get started and not too complicated. Lindsay and I did have a hard time attaching things to our learning space. We didn't realize that until today that we didn't make our own wiki learning space. I feel like some directions were not clear but I appreciate that we will have time to go back to make changes and add new things based on our classmates feedback. I learned how to inbed widgets and images too. Feeds are new to me as well as blogs.

Things that I will use... Photostory Audacity iTunes I seriously, have never used iTunes or Youtube!
